Nothing says "tech evolution" quite like Valve contradicting themselves after nearly a decade. In 2017, Gabe Newell confidently declared wireless VR a "solved problem" while showcasing their wired headset. Fast forward to 2025, and suddenly they're like "Fine, we'll just build the wireless adapter ourselves" with that signature Valve time™ energy. The irony is delicious. Eight years to go from "it's solved" to "we're solving it now" is peak Valve – the same company that can't count to 3 for Half-Life but can take their sweet time reinventing what was supposedly already fixed.

A Venn diagram that perfectly encapsulates the software development experience! Vibe Coders get "way too much rope" to hang themselves with feature creep and scope expansion. Rodeo Cowboys get "just enough rope" to do their jobs efficiently. Meanwhile, actual Prisoners get none. The beautiful intersection? We're all "unlikely to deliver production-grade software" while being "ordered around by disembodied voices" (hello, Product Managers on Slack!) and having a "high risk tolerance" that would make financial advisors weep. The real kicker is that we're essentially just prisoners who occasionally get exercise in the fenced yard of our cubicles. Freedom is an illusion - just like our estimated delivery dates!
